    That guy on the ArticSpa's ad has some neck. Doesn't miss a trick tho :)
    "Hey buddy, you've been saving your cash for five years! Now come blow it all on hottubs, poker tables and whatever other tat I've got sitting here".

    I guess it's more honest than you're average ad tho. :)

    Was just thinking that myself, cheeky fecker. You can practically see the € signs rolling in his eyes.

    I'm sure every car dealer in the country are salivating at the thought of it as well.

    Its great to see that he knows a sound financial investment when he sees one. :D

    A bit cheeky, IMO.

    why is it cheeky? He KNOWS that most people are going to blow it all so he's just saying "why not blow it on a hot tub" It's not cheeky, it's just business.

    Also, I was up there looking at a hot tub and it's not tat. Not at all.

    The amount of Car Dealerships that have upgraded their showrooms in the last year awaiting the SSIAs is unreal. I suppose it's all good business sense.

    Can't believe that level of USA-style blustery advertising is spreading to Ireland, well I can actually. Tacky-tastic!

    I wonder if it's a real ginger beard?

    I only ask because I just found out the other day that 'Barry Scott' (of Clillt BANG and the grease is gone!) is not a real person but instead an actor named 'Neil Burgess' iirc :(
